Onmyoji, a nobleman in Heian-kyo

Page 834

It's much better than staying at home.

If having a certain status allows one to go out, then of course one should go out.

Since people will gossip about their identity as immigrants anyway, they might as well just continue doing it that way.

"go?"

Kyosuke Kousaka asked Yukino when he arrived at her room.

A hint of embarrassment flickered across Yukino's delicate face.

She moved her pink lips slightly, wanting to speak, but hesitated to utter a word.

“Then let’s go,” Kousaka Kyosuke answered for her.

Yukino finally spoke up: "I want to see and learn about those crops."

Kyosuke Kosaka smiled and said, "Why don't you ask Shizuko which crops are suitable for women to grow? She should be able to give you some proper and reasonable advice."

"...Shizuko seems very busy."

"To be honest, no matter how busy she is, she still has to do what she needs to do."

"...Please don't interrupt me like this again."

Yukino glared at Kousaka Kyosuke, her cheeks instantly turning red.

Having had too much contact with Kyosuke Kousaka, and even because they knew each other from the beginning, she began to understand how terrifying Kyosuke Kousaka could be when he got dirty.

Kyosuke Kosaka coughed lightly: "I'm just telling the truth."

Shizuko never wants to play, that won't do.

It's almost certain that there will be at least one event every two days.

As for the others, Kyosuke Kousaka seemed to have more dating options.

And what about Yukino in front of me?

We haven't gone on many dates these days. She's too busy, so I can only try to contact her as little as possible.

Ultimately, it's a good thing that your partner has their own things to do and is willing to do them.

Kyosuke Kosaka had no reason to obstruct it.

While it is true that everyone should receive equal treatment, it is also important to be flexible and adaptable.

"...Shall we still depart at the second quarter?" Yukino asked, her eyes sparkling.

Kyosuke Kosaka nodded: "The same as usual."

"……Um."

"Then I'll go—"

As Kousaka Kyosuke was turning around, a small hand suddenly grabbed his sleeve.

Kousaka Kyosuke snapped out of his daze and turned his head to meet her deep, dark eyes, which were as clear as water.

understood.

Kousaka Kyosuke stepped forward and hugged Yukino.

The bed, which hadn't been made yet, was just right.

Well……

Not knowing what to say next, Yukino mumbled something and closed her eyes slightly.

Gazing at the raindrops forming droplets on the transparent rooftop, I quietly felt the gentle yet intense heat.

Knowing that time was limited, Kyosuke Kousaka still had a playful streak.

They were searching for plum blossoms in the snow and building snowmen.

Muttering to myself, "Perhaps having a deep understanding of things is still something I can accomplish."

"Kyosuke-sama..."

As time passed, Yukino, who was genuinely ticklish, could only gently pat Kyosuke Kousaka's back.

Kyosuke Kosaka then stopped his fancy moves.

Half an hour has passed.

Kyosuke Kousaka still wanted to continue indulging, but after being gently soothed by Yukino, he finally calmed down.

"Fumino's side comes to help every two or three days, but Yukino's side only comes every four or five days... This is not good."

Kousaka Kyosuke, who had a glimmer of hope in Yukino's eyes, felt a renewed sense of anticipation.

But since it wasn't convenient for him to show his anticipation, he could only pretend that he knew nothing.

If she cares too much, Yukino will still feel down.

Fumino is even more pathetic, occasionally even despairing by saying she's a water flea... It's such a headache.

Kyosuke Kousaka actually really wanted to say that.

The gap between the rich and poor in the palace is so large that "poverty" is a scarce resource, so there's nothing to regret.

Without realizing it, I thought of Sakayanagi Arisu again.

Sakayanagi Arisu must be ranked the lowest, right?

No, Sakayanagi Arisu was just a patient, and that day was an accident, so it doesn't count.

"Let's go, get ready to depart!"

After tidying everything up, Kousaka Kyosuke took Yukino to the mother's room.

In front of the mother's room, Su Yi, Su Chang, Chitanda, Shizuko, Yaodao-hime, and Hakuro were all ready.

Kagura watched longingly, and Kyosuke Kousaka found it amusing and patted her head.

"Su Chang, you carry Xue Nai over today."

"Alright! I'm going to carry Yukino on my back now!"

"You sound really arrogant..." Kousaka Kyosuke was speechless.

Looking at Yukino herself, she indeed showed an embarrassed expression.

"Goodbye, Kyosuke-sama~" Komachi said goodbye enthusiastically.

Just as Kousaka Kyosuke was about to pick up Kagura, he patted Komachi's head, and Komachi giggled.

Kyosuke Kousaka didn't spare Megumi and Moeha, who were close to Komachi either.

After saying goodbye to Xiangzi, Fujishikibu, and others, the group headed to the Mizubeji Manor.

Arrived at the destination.

Kyosuke Kosaka didn't interfere with Yukino, but let her find out the situation herself.

He mostly took Kagura around, with Sushang following along.

It wasn't until he met Kikusato Hiroi that he remembered making guitars and basses.

He was very supportive of this.

"Lord Kyosuke, your craftsmanship is truly amazing..."

Hiroi Kikuri was utterly astonished to see Kousaka Kyosuke simply raise his hand and transform a piece of wood and a piece of iron into various shapes as if he were manipulating matter.

Is this what Onmyoji is like?

It’s so scary!!

"Tell me how it is, and I'll try to make it." Knowing how it was made, Kyosuke Kousaka asked calmly.

Upon hearing this, Hiroi Kikuri quickly began to describe it.

Kagura and Sushang were both stunned.

"Was Kikuri's song yesterday really that good?" Kagura couldn't help but ask Susou.

Su Chang nodded: "Yes, yesterday, after drinking a pot of wine, Ju Li became drunk. But when she sings seriously, her voice is like heavenly music. It feels like it rushes into my heart."

Kagura was very envious after hearing this.

These days, because of the village construction, she hasn't been clinging to Kousaka Kyosuke like before, and she still feels quite lost from time to time.

Especially after hearing some interesting things that Kyosuke Kosaka briefly mentioned to her, she often wondered if she could go back in time and experience them together...

"You can listen to it whenever you want," Su Chang said, seeing Kagura's feelings.

"I know."

"By the way, do you know the magic that Lord Kyosuke is using now?"

"Yes."

"So amazing..." Su Chang couldn't help but praise Kagura.

She greatly admired Kagura's extraordinary magical talent and knowledge of many spells, which would greatly help Kousaka Kyosuke.

In comparison, she is mostly only capable of monotonous combat work, and her other support abilities are really poor.
